New From Quilts of Love || A Grand Design
A getaway on a charming island may be just what Alyssa needs—if only she can let go of her past.
When Alyssa Denham, a single career woman, wins a fun getaway for two on Mackinac Island where her grandmother lives, she gives her carefree best friend a call. Together, they tour the old shops and hidden treasures of the quaint island while helping Alyssa’s grandmother piece together an heirloom quilt. Their quest gains them entrance into the homes of many longtime residents of the island, parts of the city that are otherwise off limits to tourists.
As the quilt’s story takes shape, Alyssa gains amazing insight into her grandmother’s life . . . and attracts the attention of the handsome Scott Whitman, an island resident in charge of hotel transportation. Will memories of her past keep Alyssa from letting go? Or will the quest to piece together the heirloom quilt restore Alyssa’s fractured heart—and bring healing to her entire family?

My Review:
I really liked this book. It proves that you can go home and that family will always be your family. It does not matter if you do not see them for years. This is a great romance about meeting someone on a "vacation" and falling in love in a few days. Then you have to leave and make a decision that will affect the rest of your life. There was also a quilt in this story! Alyssa gets to talk to the people of her past and her grandmother's past. It was fun to read what the quilting squares looked like and why they were made that way. I could picture the quilt in my head! I would love to do this with my mom and people from her past. There are times in the book that God is mentioned, and I truly believe that God has a plan for all of us. It is obvious to me that God planned for Alyssa to win the contest, to her grandmothers, and to meet Scott. Scott was a great worker and character. He helped around the island and he helped any one on need. However Scott has no idea what Alyssa's secrets are, and he might not have time to find out. I thought that it was a great idea to have Alyssa's friend come with her! It was nice to have someone for her to confide in. I am given this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own. I can not wait to read more of this series. Especially from this author!
